DIRECTIONS

Wash the octopus tentacles and slice them into ½ inch pieces. Heat an 8 quart covered stove-top casserole and add the oil and garlic.

Saute for a few minutes and then add the onions and cook until they are transparent. Add all remaining ingredients and cover. Simmer until the octopus is tender, about 2 hours or so. You may need to add additional water during the cooking process. Add salt and pepper to taste. Generally this is served over rice and it makes a fine meal.
